1940 Chevrolet Sedan Delivery - Black - Supercharged 350 Chev V8, Turbo 400 Automatic
Overview
This 1940 Chevrolet Sedan Delivery is a striking custom-built street machine that combines iconic pre-war Chevrolet styling with modern V8 performance, upgraded driveline components and an exceptional show-quality finish. While retaining the unmistakable profile of the classic Chevrolet Sedan Delivery, this example has been extensively customised throughout, creating a unique vehicle equally suited to cruising, car shows or enthusiast collections.
Power comes from a newly built 350ci Chevrolet V8 fitted with a 6/71 supercharger, delivering impressive performance and unmistakable visual appeal. The engine is paired with a Turbo 400 automatic transmission featuring a 2,400rpm stall converter, while a fully upgraded front end incorporating Tru Trac suspension, power steering and front disc brakes provides significantly improved handling and drivability over the original 1940 specification. The vendor further advises the vehicle is fitted with fully electric air conditioning, a rear-view camera and a premium sound system, making it far more comfortable and usable than a standard pre-war classic.
The customisation extends throughout the entire vehicle. The vendor advises the interior has been completely retrimmed, creating a modern yet sympathetic cabin finish that complements the exterior. The black paintwork was completed by renowned painter Joe Webb and features custom ghosting, gold metal flake flames and a Rat Fink mural across the rear of the vehicle, making this an unmistakable one-off build. Completing the package are Chip Foose wheels, with the vendor advising the vehicle has travelled only approximately 1,500 kilometres since completion of the build.
Combining classic Chevrolet styling with modern performance, premium craftsmanship and extensive custom detailing, this Sedan Delivery presents an outstanding opportunity to acquire a professionally built custom vehicle with significant visual presence and impressive mechanical specification.
Condition
The vehicle presents to a high custom standard throughout. The professionally finished paintwork displays excellent gloss and incorporates ghosted graphics, gold metal flake flames and a Rat Fink mural. The fully customised interior presents in excellent condition, while the engine bay showcases the impressive 6/71 supercharged 350 Chevrolet V8. The vendor advises the vehicle has travelled approximately 1,500 kilometres since completion of the build, and the overall presentation reflects the quality and attention to detail invested throughout the project.
